I called the dealer today to see if they could swap the tach location with the temp/gas gauge. It would be a better location and easier to see when shifting heavy. I could easily perform this mod but, it's new and we'll you know, it's new.

Well, what a surprise. The freaking dash panel is a circut board and the service manger said, "No Way!". "The entire dash panel is a circut board and your stuck with it".

Next time your in your RL, imagine the tach and the temp/gas gauge swapped and you'll know what I mean. I have a heavy electronic background and can make the necessary wiring mods to make it happen but, I would have to buy a dash panel first and modify it, then put it in. Maybe after the header....

I was thinking the same thing myself.....it would be much easier to shift if the tach wasnt on the far right

Install a shift light behind the steering wheel and you don't even have to look at the tach anymore.

If you actually see what that gauge cluster looks like without the bezels, you'll see that it's not worth modifying. It's one big chunk of plastic.

i was going to do this, but i remembered doing reverse glow gauges on my last car and realized that the components are built into the cluster, would be nice though, although i don't think it would affect my driving much if at all
